Summary

This early-phase study tests a new drug, BI 1831169, combined with an existing immunotherapy (nivolumab) in Japanese adults with advanced solid tumors that have spread or not responded to prior treatments. The main goal is to find a safe, tolerable dose. Up to 46 participants will receive the combination as an infusion for up to one year, with regular monitoring for side effects and tumor changes.
